Too young for playgroup or storytime???

Our local library offers a playgroup and storytime once a week. The playgroup is infants and toddlers and the storytime is birth to 2 years, so I signed LO and I up for the upcoming sessions. When I was telling my SIL about it she was shocked that I would sign him up this young. I think it will be good for him. Besides it didn't cost anything, if I don't like it I just won't go back. I was just wondering if any of you go to playgroups or anything like that?

Corinne and I do all the time!! We have playdates at our house and we also go to programs at the parks and library. She has fun! Sometimes she's not interested in the story, but it's fun to see her interact with the other kids. She loves the events where there is singing and signing. Go! Have fun!

I was going to take my chick to the same thing at our library. I dont think they are too young. I'm looking forward to it--I'm hoping she'll enjoy it. She is our first so she isn't around a lot of kids/babies and I think it'll be good for her to have that interaction.

Definetly not too young! I've been taking my LO to storytime at the library since he was 2 weeks old. He's also done 2 sessions (21 classes/2 times a week) of swimming lessons! I tried a mom's group but it wasnt for me, i have enough friends with kids to talk to and I have the May Momma's board! Thoryn LOVES being around other kids, I'm not gonna lie I find a lot of the mom's annoying ( comparing babies/ trying to "one up" each other) but my LO is happy playing so I take him and just deal with it! I'm gonna have 18 or so more years of it anyway....

We also have done story time at the library and next week starts a playtime session. We had so much fun. Isabella has a great time, we get out of the house, and she gets to play with other kids her age and a little bit older. I think you will really enjoy it.

That's fantastic! I think that exposing your LOs to all different kinds of environments and people is great! It is such a great learning experience. They may not be talking and interacting much but they are absorbing every bit! My LO loves to people watch so I take her everywhere. I've done library storytime and we have weekly baby and me swim classes.

Story time at our library is great - we have been going since he was couple of weeks old. We also do Monkey Music (music class) every Tuesday, swimming every Thursday and the library every Wednesday so I have been trying to have play dates on Mondays or Fridays. Babies respond amazingly to music so definitely go for the story time at the library. The toddler group we went once was too noisy so we didn't go again but once he can walk I'm planning signing for the baby gym.We also do signing every other day with the DVD at home as we do the ASL but my mommies friends go to TinyTalk (BSL class).

I went to library storytime for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Â My LO was definitely the youngest in the group, but it was cool to see her look around at the other babies/toddlers. Â She didn't pay attention to the story, but she was fascinated by the puppet show! Â I'm definitely going to take her back next week. Â Go and have fun! Â Besides, its free Â :)
